Just 40% faster than running ee.   

And yeah, the presence of reapers might slow you down a small amount, but not 40% slower unless you just can't handle them, so no matter what it's still faster on a competent toon with a competent player.  You can run a r1 quest without seeing a single reaper and just enjoy the bonus xp.

I double it. The only possible way I dont have 75-90% kills in a party when I run arcane is when I pike or brainfarting like falling in beyond the rift :-D
And especially epic reaper. On normal and hard ranged guys rarely can outkill me just because of range: I dont always run enlarge.
Yet some monks in some quests may do faster solo than solo wizard, just because of insane movespeed and abudant steps. Melees will kill bosses much faster aswell. Yet, say, something like A small problem is painfull for meleeing, so is many others quests.

Ok, A small problem. Solo as wizard I do it in around 20 mins, spending a LOT if time fighting those elementals and final fight. As warlock around 16 mins. I really wonder if you can beat this with your barbarian, if you can solo it at all. Some set of champs just will wipe you out at earth part or air part until you triple-everything and with shitton of reaper points.

Next bargain of blood. Solo as warlock around 7 mins, 5 of them is boss fight.

Finally, yeah, spies in a house. Something you rarely doing solo, yet I had to with my fiend warlock once, was a little less than20 mins with total cleanup (kills, Breakables). If you want some sort of proves Im lvl 20 wizzy right now. Those numbers are outdated since I'm keep improving self so if you wanna compete Im at your service:b

For heroics:  Sorcerer.  Especially once you realize re-running content is still amazing xp/min and that you should cheese farm your reaper xp at cap instead it's great.  Chain Lightning is hilarious.

Only idiots or people with static groups do R1 streaking to cap.

Doing 3BC with an opener can get you from 5 to 8 in about an hour.  I can bang out like 8~9 Shadow Crypts in about an hour or so and that'll take me from 8 to 11 for example. A few VoN3's later I'm ready to do Gianthold.

The only real hiccup in my leveling path right now is the Estar saga.  I need a +1 to do them reliably quick on sorc because of shitty shrine placement and the fuckton of wisps.  Finishing WGU though and getting 350k+ xp is fun though.

Are you this type if guy who running heroic hard 7 times? :-D running 80% ransacked quest for regular xp and calling others idiots meaning a) you cannot into math b) you cannot power creep with your toon on r1. Even solo even r1 at bb A LOT faster than jerk same quests for sure. And for farmable quests r1-elite-hard-normal-hard or elite is more than enough in most cases, with or without potion. If you really want to farm them out, just add casual and hard. But running quest 8-10 times is just nuts. Its 2018, wake up, bro ^^

Yet I must admit since its not single player game, best way to have decent group comp. a trapper who will secure your xp bonus, an instakiller who will wipe all the trash and dps who will deal with the boss. This is truelly best and fastest way to play it, and thats my arcane lifes actually superfast over others: its usually not that hard to find okay dps or competent trapper, but good played and built arcanes are almost never happen
